700r4 Trans

[Darryl & Karen Smith]

one of the main reasons that the 200 series transmissions were used on the
GNs were the BOP
bolt pattern, it won't bolt to a Chevy.  The 700 series won't bolt up to
buick,olds,pontiac,cadillac, etc.(w/o adaptors)   Power train-wise the 4l60e
is the same as the later 700s.
